"THE CHURCHES OF CHRIST SALUTE YOU."

Romans 16:16

'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,

Just to take Him at His word,

Just to ret upon His promise,

Just to know, "Thus saith the Lord."

GOSPEL of CHRIST

'BEHOLD, I THOUGHT Possibly one of " the greatest mistakes that -Naaman, the great captain of Syria, ever made was in his determining for himself how God should heal him of his leprosy. God's prophet told him to dip in the river Jordan seven times, and "thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean." II Kings 5:10. "But Naaman was wroth, and went away and said, Behold, I thought . . ." He had some ;xJeas of his own about this matter. And because God's prophet d'id not say what he thought he ought to have said, he went away mad. He . just did not want to dip in the river Jordan. He wanted the prophet to come out and stand and call on God, strike his hand over the place and recover the leper that way. This was the more reasonable and convenient to him. How like men today! But when he went away, refusing to dip in the river, remember that he went away with his leprosy still on him. Only until he humbled himself to do the will of God could he be cleansed." But his manner of rejoicing the Lord's will and way is still used. How

I started back in 1945 probably before your time. The Great War ended and numerous veterans returned to America, their heads filled with the dream of settling down with their families in a ' place of their own . . . but, sir, i there were evil influences afoot Visitor: Evil influences, sir?

! American: Yes. Apartmant-

holders fell under the evil influence of a new creed called Adult-onlyism, sometimes called No-childrenism. For example, in this small town which is but a shell of its former self, apartment-holders began to believe that Childhood was an atrocious disease which could as easily as not ba skirted around by the average- adult. Therefore, believing thus, they placed in . the local paper such advertisements as this: "For Rent Four-room apartment, bath, gnrage. NC CHILDREN ALLOWED. Reasonable terms." Reasonable! They saii Reasonable! Was it reasona.. ble that the apartment-holders should hold such unlimited power over the average couple. Reasonable? Yes, if one had no children and no intentions or capacity for having children. This new creed caught on with apartment-holders. Soon all a-partment-holdcrs were fanatic believers in this ism this No-

! Childrenism. Householders with

houses for rent took it up; they were delighted with it. Soon all public and private institutions were clamoring against children.

! Great popular demonstrations

often do we'hear, "But I think tins or that." And when men do as they please, rather than as God pleases. And yet God says, "My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways." Many souls in sadness will finally say, "I thought." The thing we need to do is believe Jesus Christ and do just as He says. Paul said to King Agrippa, "I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth." Acts 26:9. But though he thought it, he was wrong. And th:.nk of this, HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE RIGHT IN GOD'S SIGHT? "I think" is the power of Satan to condemnation. A knowledge of the truth is God's power to freedom. 'The word of God is His power to save a sinful and dying world (Romans 1:16). It is necessary that men know the truth of Jesus Christ in order to be saved. "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:31). Erroneous ideas about the Lord's religion are not from God but from Satan.

jwere held in the streets: Down I with Children, they cried. Down 'with Children! Well, sir . . Visitor: Go on, Lone Yankee: American: Well, sir, the in- ! evitable happened. With everyone up in arms against children, and since no one could get an : apartment or a house unless he was childless, it was a natural result that children ceased to be. In twenty-five years the population dwindled to a fourth. What the No-Ghildrenists had not realized was that if you outlaw children you also automatically outlaw people. Thus, the population dwindled steadily until you see "us today, sir one man, his wife, and one old lady. Visitor: But you mustn't give up hope. Yankee. There are you and your wife and your capacity to reproduce. You can start now and beghi to build up America ; once again to the strong populous nation that it was in 1945. You can do it, Yankee. . . American (sadly): Ah no. '. . it cannot be. You forget that my wife and I are not the last Americans. There is this old woman. And she is an apartment-holder. Today she approached me and said: "Sir, I have an apartment if you . are looking for one you and your wife." Well, sir, I am looking for one. And I am going to take this apartment. Visitor: Well, good, good! There, in that apartment, you can start rebuilding America. American: Ah no, sir! You see, this old lady, in the popular 1 tradition, has also specified: NO-CHILDREN. One who Thinks Children are Necessary.
